Great water views. Watch where you step.

Great, challenging layout with many views of Ford Lake. 2 suggestions: I was surprised that there are no ball washers on the course--or on the carts. Also, it would be great if they could find some way to limit the goose population. Sometimes they take over the greens, and you have to watch your step and look in the fairway to check whether that really is mud on your ball or what. Less gross would be nice. Hence the first suggestion.

Challenging layout needs restoration

I hope someone is able to form an investment group and sink some money into improving this course. I have no idea what their finances are like from other revenue sources, but it seems this is a great design of a course that could really use someone making a financial commitment to restore the course to what must have been its former glory. As far as playing, it is tight, with narrow tree-lined fairways that will get you in trouble if you are hitting it sideways. Sloping and winding fairways make for challenging drives and approach shots. A great place to take an assessment of your long game. The greens would very dangerous if they were restored, as they are quite sloped also. WP also sits in a very nice community, which let you see the potential here.

Nice but overpriced.

Good and hilly, challenging course, but a little too high-priced for the value in my opinion, given its condition relative to other courses in the area. Greens have many, many large white spots & rings-- maybe from prior holes. There are no on-course structures for restrooms, only portable ones. They could also benefit from better signage for navigation between holes. You have to cross neighborhood streets about 8-10 times, and a few trips are long. Got lost a few times. Also, holes 13-16 are like a mile from the rest of the course, and it was not clear initially how far I had to go and whether I was going the right way. Longest trip on a golf cart ever. (I doubt they would let anyone walk this course). I had to ask residents in the neighborhood for directions a few times during the round. It kind of made me mad that I was wasting so much time just getting to the next hole, when a few more signs would help do the job quite easily. Anyway, the neighborhood is very nice with large, expensive homes being built, and some of the scenery is nice between holes. It is true what they say that the course has an up-north feel with the tall trees. For players, they do give you a very nice and thorough yardage booklet, so if you are a more accomplished player, perhaps you would take better advantage of that to place your ball in the right spots. I was able to get $10 off the already -discounted Hot Deal price thru GolfNow, but I'm not sure I would go again for full price. Maybe when I get better, so I don’t lose so many golf balls!!

Wet but playable

Course was very wet. Could only use carts on paths. Our group had a few balls plug and become embedded in the fairway. Some standing water in areas, including bunkers. Greens OK.

Course under repair

No. 16 is set up now as a Par 3, rather than a Par 5, because of repairs and reseeding underway. I wish we had been told that prior to playing. the signs aren't clear about there not being a proper tee box. They just tell you to go to the fairway. Anyway, it seems like there are some major repairs, so I probably won't be back until the spring when it is hopefully completed.

Wish I was good enough to play here more

This is a very nice course with a good layout. I just wish I had enough game to really play here. There are a lot of forced carries, tight drives, and blind landing areas for both tee shots and approach shots. I hope to improve enough so as not to lose so many golf balls. If you find a TaylorMade ball, it is probably mine-- but at least I got them for free.

Had a great time playing this course for the first time. Played as a single. More hilly than I anticipated, but generous room along the fairways, like other Metropark courses I have played. More nature area hazards to lose your ball in, but that was my fault! Would go again.
